Rutherford County 4-H'ers that are interested in raising pigs should contact Mr. Michael at the 4-H office now. The deadline for ownership is coming up in October, so it is very important to order your hogs' ear tags now.The 4-H swine project is a great animal project for beginners and experienced 4-H'ers alike. One 4-H'er can raise two pigs in an area no larger than 8' by 16'. Plus, this project allows 4-H'ers to raise an animal from weaning to the show ring in less than four months!
